This document is a copy of the Cusata King's talk sent to adopted Creek John Galphin, April 11, 1786. The talk warns that
the Spaniards have sent a talk to the Creeks at Tellico in which they are urged to turn against the white people in upper
Georgia. They are informed that the Choctaws and Chickasaws are complying with this request and are receiving arms and ammunition.
The Cusatas indicate their unwillingness to join stating that they are friends with the Americans, but some Creeks have already
been persuaded and have embarked on a mission to murder whites on the Georgia frontiers. The Cusata King requests that a peaceful
talk from the Governor (of Georgia) be sent to the hostile parties in order to pacify them. John Galphin and Philip Scott
intend to try to intercept the hostile groups and prevent them from committing any murders

Osceola, Abiaka, King Philip, Coacoochee, Micanopy, Halleck Hadjo, Tuskegee and Holatoochee are discussed in detail. Especially
noteworthy is Jesup's defense of his capture of Osceola and Coa Hadjo, his perspective on the Cherokee delegation to the Seminoles
and suspicions about a hidden agenda, and the many connections drawn between the Seminole resistance and African runaway slaves.
U.S. military figures mentioned include Joseph M. Hernandez, David E. Twiggs, Zachary Taylor and Abraham Eustis

This is a printed pamphlet that pertains to a meeting of citizens of St. Augustine, Florida, in 1836. A committee of citizens
is formed to petition for relief from the federal government for property loss suffered during hostilities with local Indians
(Second Seminole War, 1835-1842). In particular, they ask that Gen. Joseph M. Hernandez be permitted to provide them with
food from military stores and that the government allot money for public assistance and the payment of troops. Excerpts from
letters and a newspaper article follow the meeting report. The first letter discusses the activities of Gen. Duncan L. Clinch
and the Dade Massacre, emphasizing the need for more troops. The other materials examine the efforts of the Seminoles and
the importance of their alliances with the Creeks and runaway African slaves. Seminole leader Osceola is discussed at length,
as is his relationship with the late agent, Wiley Thompson. A description of recent property damage sustained by white settlers
is also provided

of New Echota (1835), narrated by Elias Boudinot, the original editor of the Cherokee Phoenix. In resigning his post as editor
of the Phoenix, Boudinot sets forth the basis for conflict between rival factions of Cherokee leadership -- the Treaty Party
or Ridge Party and the Anti-Treaty Party or Ross Party. Boudinot, a member of the pro-treaty group, utilizes various documents
to explain the motives of the removal treaty signers, and in so doing, he criticizes Principal Chief John Ross for misleading
the Cherokee people by fostering their hopes in a lost cause. Boudinot includes letters and addresses by Ross and himself
relative to strife amongst the parties and a failed attempt at resolution as well as correspondence between himself and the

This document, dated January 14, 1833, is a printed proclamation from Wilson Lumpkin, Governor of Georgia (1831-1835), to
Charles C. Mills, Principal Keeper of the Penitentiary, and possibly intended for publication. Lumpkin directs the release
of two missionaries, Samuel A. Worcester and Elizur Butler, who had been imprisoned for illegally dwelling in the Cherokee
territory while refusing to take an oath of allegiance to Georgia. Lumpkin explains his reasons for remitting the sentences
of the two men, including fervent appeals by citizens of the Union, but strenuously reasserts the "evil" of their deed. He
further asserts that his decision was based on the missionaries' decision to leave their case to "the magnanimity of the state."
Despite this characterization of events, the case had already been taken before the Supreme Court (Worcester v. Georgia) and
decided in their favor in 1832
